Newburgh cops seize coke, heroin in raid

CITY OF NEWBURGH - City cops on Friday raided a basement apartment, arrested four people and seized cocaine and heroin, police said.

Cops had investigated drug sales from the apartment at 154 N. Miller St. for about a month before they executed a search warrant at 9:15 a.m. Police said they recovered about 56 grams of coke and 25 glassine envelopes of heroin.

The resident, 60-year-old Carpeah Nyenekor, was charged with two felony counts and one misdemeanor count of criminal possession of a controlled substance.

Others in the apartment — Junior Parker, 45, of New Windsor, Daphne Hill, 38, of Newburgh and Judy Cobb, 41, of Cornwall — were each charged with felony possession.

Hill faces an additional misdemeanor possession charge. Nyenekor and Parker are on parole for drug convictions.
